Abstract

Information is more important for decision makers, policy makers, planners, technologists, scientists, doctors, lawyers, etc. Information is a livelihood for many people. One can imagine the importance and the role of information from the fact that in America most of the people are working in information service sectors. User needs and the requirements are also changed in the technology-driven society. Information is not only available in one source but scattered in different forms as well. The findings of the study show the respondent satisfaction of various e-resources. About e-books 28.68% of respondents were satisfied followed by 27.50% neutral, 16.03% respondents dissatisfied, 14.70% respondents highly dissatisfied, and only 13.09% respondent highly satisfied. About e-journal, 35.15% were satisfied and 30.73% highly satisfied with only 0.73% highly dissatisfied.
